Data Structures for Driversscsi_pkt(9S)


NAME

 scsi_pkt - SCSI packet structure

SYNOPSIS

 
#include <sys/scsi/scsi.h> 

INTERFACE LEVEL

 

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

DESCRIPTION

 

A scsi_pkt structure defines the packet that is allocated by scsi_init_pkt(9F). The target driver fills in some information, and passes it to scsi_transport(9F) for execution on the target. The host bus adapter (HBA) fills in some other information as the command is processed. When the command completes (or can be taken no further) the completion function specified in the packet is called, with a pointer to the packet as its argument. From fields within the packet, the target driver can determine the success or failure of the command.

                      /* time allotted to complete command */

                      /* pointer to status block */
uchar_t              *pkt_cdbp;                       
                      /* pointer to command block */
ssize_t              pkt_resid;                       
                      /* number of bytes not transferred */
uint_t               pkt_state;                       
                      /* state of command */
uint_t               pkt_statistics;                  
                      /* statistics */
uchar_t              pkt_reason;                      
                      /* reason completion called */
pkt_ha_private
An opaque pointer that the Host Bus Adapter uses to reference a private data structure used to transfer scsi_pkt requests.
pkt_address
Initialized by scsi_init_pkt(9F); pkt_address records the intended route and recipient of a request.
pkt_private
Reserved for the use of the target driver; pkt_private is not changed by the HBA driver.
pkt_comp
Specifies the command completion callback routine. When the host adapter driver has gone as far as it can in transporting a command to a SCSI target, and the command has either run to completion or can go no further for some other reason, the host adapter driver will call the function pointed to by this field and pass a pointer to the packet as argument. The callback routine itself is called from interrupt context and must not sleep or call any function that might sleep.
pkt_flags
Provides additional information about how the target driver expects the command to be executed. See pkt_flag Definitions.
pkt_time
Will be set by the target driver to represent the maximum time in seconds that this command is allowed to take to complete. Timeout starts when the command is transmitted on the SCSI bus. pkt_time may be 0 if no timeout is required.
pkt_scbp
Points to either a struct scsi_status(9S) or, if auto-rqsense is enabled, and pkt_state includes STATE_ARQ_DONE, a struct scsi_arq_status. If scsi_status is returned, the SCSI status byte resulting from the requested command is available; if scsi_arq_status(9S) is returned, the sense information is also available.
pkt_cdbp
Points to a kernel-addressable buffer whose length was specified by a call to the proper resource allocation routine, scsi_init_pkt(9F).
pkt_resid
Contains a residual count, either the number of data bytes that have not been transferred ( scsi_transport(9F)) or the number of data bytes for which DMA resources could not be allocated scsi_init_pkt(9F). In the latter case, partial DMA resources may only be allocated if scsi_init_pkt(9F) is called with the PKT_DMA_PARTIAL flag.
pkt_state
Has bit positions that represent the six most important states that a SCSI command can go through (see pkt_state Definitions).
pkt_statistics
Maintains some transport-related statistics. (see pkt_statistics Definitions).
pkt_reason
Contains a completion code that indicates why the pkt_comp function was called. See pkt_reason Definitions, below.

The host adapter driver will update the pkt_resid, pkt_reason, pkt_state, and pkt_statistics fields.

pkt_flags Definitions:

 

The appropriate definitions for the structure member pkt_flags are:

FLAG_NOINTR
Run command with no command completion callback; command is complete upon return from scsi_transport(9F).
FLAG_NODISCON
Run command without disconnects.
FLAG_NOPARITY
Run command without parity checking.
FLAG_HTAG
Run command as the head-of-queue-tagged command.
FLAG_OTAG
Run command as an ordered-queue-tagged command.
FLAG_STAG
Run command as a simple-queue --tagged command.
FLAG_SENSING
Indicates command is a request sense command.
FLAG_HEAD
Place command at the head of the queue.
FLAG_RENEGOTIATE_WIDE_SYNC
Before transporting this command, the host adapter should initiate the renegotiation of wide mode and synchronous transfer speed. Normally the HBA driver manages negotiations but under certain conditions forcing a renegotation is appropriate. Renegotiation is recommended before Request Sense and Inquiry commands. (Refer to the SCSI 2 standard, sections 6.6.21 and 6.6.23.) This flag should not be set for every packet as this will severely impact performance.

pkt_reason Definitions:

 

The appropriate definitions for the structure member pkt_reason are:

CMD_CMPLT
No transport errors; normal completion.
CMD_INCOMPLETE
Transport stopped with abnormal state.
CMD_DMA_DERR
DMA direction error.
CMD_TRAN_ERR
Unspecified transport error.
CMD_RESET
SCSI bus reset destroyed command.
CMD_ABORTED
Command transport aborted on request.
CMD_TIMEOUT
Command timed out.
CMD_DATA_OVR
Data overrun.
CMD_CMD_OVR
Command overrun.
CMD_STS_OVR
Status overrun.
CMD_BADMSG
Message not command complete.
CMD_NOMSGOUT
Target refused to go to message out phase.
CMD_XID_FAIL
Extended identify message rejected.
CMD_IDE_FAIL
"Initiator Detected Error" message rejected.
CMD_ABORT_FAIL
Abort message rejected.
CMD_REJECT_FAIL
Reject message rejected.
CMD_NOP_FAIL
"No Operation" message rejected.
CMD_PER_FAIL
"Message Parity Error" message rejected.
CMD_BDR_FAIL
"Bus Device Reset" message rejected.
CMD_ID_FAIL
Identify message rejected.
CMD_UNX_BUS_FREE
Unexpected bus free phase.
CMD_TAG_REJECT
Target rejected the tag message.

pkt_state Definitions:

 

The appropriate definitions for the structure member pkt_state are:

STATE_GOT_BUS
Bus arbitration succeeded.
STATE_GOT_TARGET
Target successfully selected.
STATE_SENT_CMD
Command successfully sent.
STATE_XFERRED_DATA
Data transfer took place.
STATE_GOT_STATUS
Status received.
STATE_ARQ_DONE
The command resulted in a check condition and the host adapter driver executed an automatic request sense command.

pkt_statistics Definitions:

 

The definitions that are appropriate for the structure member pkt_statistics are:

STAT_DISCON
Device disconnect.
STAT_SYNC
Command did a synchronous data transfer.
STAT_PERR
SCSI parity error.
STAT_BUS_RESET
Bus reset.
STAT_DEV_RESET
Device reset.
STAT_ABORTED
